Dear Parents, I am a former preschool teacher looking to make some extra money. I AM ONLY AVAILABLE TEMPORARILY. I can’t do a permanent gig right now. My graduate degree is in Primary Education and I have a valid Child Development Permit issued from California. Currently, I am free some days, most evenings and on weekends. I do have FBI clearance and I do have a parent you can call for a reference but basically my years of experience speak for itself. I look forward to hearing from you. Choose me if you want someone fun-loving and responsible. Current CPR and First Aid Training. Thank you Erica

Erica was excellent with my 3 year old! She watched him for 5.5 hours and he had a lot of fun with her : ) We’ll have you back Erica!

AVAILABLE FOR BACKUP CARE TRUSTLINE REGISTERED Not too long ago it was a tradition for an extended family member to step in as a caregiver for working parents. Now, there are many families who have moved to a new city for a career without a family member nearby. I specialize in taking loving care of children in my role as caregiver. I strive to prepare healthy kid-friendly meals and snacks for children. And I make use of other sites to find activities for little learners. I can keep your child engaged with reading books aloud and other fun and educational activities. I am very resourceful and patient with a sense of humor! For the past couple of years, I have worked as a nanny in share, and with one child alone. Those parents are very willing to be a reference for me. And I had a very successful run in Washington DC with many families from the region. Maybe I have cared for your family or friends in DC; I have more than 400 bookings there. I really look forward to working with your family!

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."

Eric D., dad of two
